Abstract
Due to its importance in prolonging the lifetime of battery-restricted wireless sensor networks, network longevity has garnered considerable research attention, with the rechargeable wireless sensor network emerging as a viable solution. In this research, the novel methodology of a trust-based mechanism for enhanced security integrated with an energy utility and re-usability model is proposed with software-defined networking (SDN) to maximize energy utilization. We proposed a novel framework with SDN for the service station in a wireless sensor network (WSN). The results showed that the life capacity of the network increases to a maximum of 290% when compared with no charging, with the charge increasing by 30% intervals. We also present how the network survives through this choice of sink. As there is variation in the network size while it increases, the proposed approach with the static method works well until the network size reaches 200. Furthermore, the proposed approach also uses the heuristic method to achieve the best performance.
